Werder Bremen vs 1899 Hoffenheim Prediction

Werder Bremen host 1899 Hoffenheim on 31 October 2026 at 17:30 in the Bundesliga. Bremen's last outing ended in a 3–2 defeat to Borussia Dortmund on 27 October, though they beat Mainz 3–2 away four days earlier. Hoffenheim arrive off consecutive 3–0 wins: 3–0 over Bayer Leverkusen on 25 October and 3–0 against Lyon on 22 October. The visitors have won eight of their last ten head-to-head meetings against Bremen.

Bremen's Niklas Füllkrug has scored eight goals in seven Bundesliga matches this season and leads the home attack. Hoffenheim's Adam Gložek and Bambasse Konté both contribute in the final third, with two goals and one assist each across seven league appearances. Bremen have failed to win in seven of their last ten Bundesliga matches, while Hoffenheim have recorded over 1.5 goals in each of their last ten matches across all competitions.

Form and H2H

Bremen have avoided defeat in seven of their last ten matches across all official competitions, though their league form has been inconsistent. At home, they have recorded more than 12.5 shots in eight of their last ten Bundesliga fixtures. Their defensive record remains a concern: in the ten Bundesliga matches involving Bremen, opponents have averaged 2.0 goals scored against them.

Hoffenheim's away record stands out. Every one of their last ten Bundesliga away matches has produced over 2.5 total goals. Their expected goals average across ten recent league matches sits at 1.97 per game. Bremen's attacking output has been modest by comparison, averaging 1.55 expected goals across their last ten Bundesliga appearances. Hoffenheim's defensive opponents in their last ten league matches have averaged 1.30 expected goals.

Best bet

Over 2.5 goals is the play here. Bremen concede regularly and Hoffenheim score consistently on the road. Bremen themselves have shown attacking intent in recent weeks, scoring twice against Mainz and twice against Dortmund. Hoffenheim's last two matches produced six goals each. The combination of Bremen's leaky defence, Hoffenheim's prolific away form, and Bremen's own attacking capability makes three or more goals the most likely outcome.
